He may have known your Dad. I am not sure what company your Dad was in. The 17,000Man Roster has innaccurate information onthe companies of the 56th.

Also, check BOOKS AND WRITTEN EXPERIENCESin the column to the left.

Click on History of the 56th Armored Infantry. Also read the history of the 56th by John Nugent. And read the Initial Assault on Herrlisheim by the 56th AIB andthe 714th Tank Battalion. See also the Oral History Tapes from men of the 56th (left side of screen).
